The sad part is they chose those questions and answers to show us."This is something we can investigate for a future"
"This is something we can look at for a future quality of life update!"
"This is not something we are eager to do."
Anyone see a pattern here?
Question #4 is exactly what it says it is. I posted the issue in the bugs forum and brought it up at the Sonoma meet and greet. Using the "select nearest: hostile" macro in classic client is broken and needs to be fixed.Looks like we can make a UO Farm now.
#4 The question is about pulling up bars when there is 50 objects on the screen . The link is about the targeting system. They both need fixed but the people fixing them need to know there is a difference between targeting and health bars.

Then you should be curious about what item 42324 is meant to represent...WAR PIG!!!!!!!!!!!!

Select nearest hostile does not pull up health bars in the CC. Never has.Question #4 is exactly what it says it is. I posted the issue in the bugs forum and brought it up at the Sonoma meet and greet. Using the "select nearest: hostile" macro in classic client is broken and needs to be fixed.
You are wrong, I have been using it for years and it DOES pull up the health bar.Select nearest hostile does not pull up health bars in the CC. Never has.
The bug report is about selecting a target. Which both clients have issues with.
You or the devs know the difference between targeting and health bars. It will never be fixed....
So why does everyone have trouble finding the boss at an EM event? We could all just select nearest target and the boss health bar just pops up then press all kill on it.You are wrong, I have been using it for years and it DOES pull up the health bar.
Make sure you do not have the new targeting system disabled (under the mouse icon) and the monster is hostile to you.So why does everyone have trouble finding the boss at an EM event? We could all just select nearest target and the boss health bar just pops up then press all kill on it.
I can't get a health bar in a crowd using it.
Its great when it works correctly.OK I pushed some buttons now I get both. THANKS
Darn how can I make it cycle? hmm Its snowing.
Mesanna rather loves to play GM than working anything out with EA.How about you have a sale on sovereigns so players can pick what they want to buy.
players that won’t normally buy virtual goods might be tempted to forego this personal rule for a bit of bargain bling
50% off sovereigns means more sales that ordinarily wouldn’t happen
How beautiful! they gave us another bad candy!"This is something we can investigate for a future"
"This is something we can look at for a future quality of life update!"
"This is not something we are eager to do."

A lot less competition for those that never seem to get banned.dang 197 suspended or banned ............... that leaves what ........ maybe 6 actual people still playing [bcolor=rgb(16, 16, 16)][/bcolor]
EA likes money. EA likes money more than it cares about our brand loyalty. EA likes money more than it cares about UO. EA likes money more than looking good to the public.Mesanna rather loves to play GM than working anything out with EA.
Because a sophisticated scripter can have automated replies for a GM or an alarm that alerts them that a GM is trying to talk to them. The rule seems to be: if you respond, you're allowed to continue. If you don't respond, you get actioned.Those numbers look good but are the true. How is it they can catch all this but still have a major problem with scripts.
And some are given less than 30 seconds to respond while for others they seem to wait 10 or more minutes. I guess everyone is free to believe what he wants to believe.Because a sophisticated scripter can have automated replies for a GM or an alarm that alerts them that a GM is trying to talk to them.

BS is pretty much damned if they do, damned if they don't.
Inconsistency is the heart of UO.And some are given less than 30 seconds to respond while for others they seem to wait 10 or more minutes. I guess everyone is free to believe what he wants to believe.
I would believe that as the most obvious answer if it wasn't the same old people over and over again where GMs seem to be inconsistentInconsistency is the heart of UO.
Selective enforcement of the Rules and TOS. In other words there are obviously sanctioned folks that violate the Rules and TOS for fun and RL profit. I don't log in often anymore mainly because I just don't find much enjoyment in UO anymore. I keep around 10 accts active and some of the Siege and Prodo public service houses open. I often wonder why I do that since those houses visitor counts rarely go up now days. This news letter pretty much reminds me of why I find little joy in UO.......... So I spend most of my game time playing a game that does not have all the malfunctions that infest UO now days, has not one but two dev teams, publishes new content and updates weekly and is just short of officially being a 20 year old game with usually 80,000-100,000 people online playing. Plus I look way more cool there than I ever did in UOThose numbers look good but are the true. How is it they can catch all this but still have a major problem with scripts.

That would be Robs job not BonniesMesanna rather loves to play GM than working anything out with EA.
I understand... I play more of another game than UO sometimes too... and yeah my characters look way more awesome in that game than in here:Selective enforcement of the Rules and TOS.

The item choices are pretty bad. I want to buy stuff. I really do. But I believe the prices are too high so I don't. Make sovereigns be on sale or lower the price of everything for 2-7 days. Otherwise, I'm keeping my money and EA is missing out on customer's money.50% off "Select Items", please pick someone else to be the "Item Selector".
Undertaker Staff is almost equal to using "SACRIFICE". Sacrifice retrieves items in backpack, even unblessed/uninsured items if done quickly enough.before they get looted in bad environments(if memory is correct). Check it out. Keep putzing!The Undertakers Staff is actually a really useful item, my husband used it a lot, he died a lot too....it's one of the best items in the store in my opinion. I admit I did buy quite a few dyes in there too, but only because I had sovereigns to use up, honest....
Had an EM event last night on LS. There was a drop so it was very crowded. I pulled up summons and revenants. I got the boss when it was at half life by cntr shft. I moved to different spots to try to help it find the boss.I find it to be fairly essential for EM Events.
Yes I know I was there... got a drop! Didn't die amazingly... but my poor beetle did multiple times.Had an EM event last night on LS. There was a drop so it was very crowded.
